There aren't that many chinese restaurants in the Soho/Noho area, the first time I came was because a friend visiting from England wanted to try some real Chinese tea, so I took him here to see what "real" tea was like.The tea menu read like a wine list, was confusing for tea beginners like us, so the manager recommended something that was light and refreshing. Can't remember what it was, but it was very 清, and almost tasteless I have to say, next time will stick to something less exotic... The
The tea menu read like a wine list, was confusing for tea beginners like us, so the manager recommended something that was light and refreshing. Can't remember what it was, but it was very 清, and almost tasteless I have to say, next time will stick to something less exotic... The manager gave us some beans and snacks to go with the tea, and we also tried the osmanthus cake.... that was the best ever osmanthus cake i've tried!!! Very fragrant, the flower petals, anthers and so one were perfectly preserved in the jelly, but melts once in your mouth so you won't feel like you're a cow chewing on cud... the manager said they don't make it everyday, more of a chance thing if you come on the right day...
The second time I came was with another friend for dinner. We ordered half a chicken (only because the manager said another customer ordered the other half earlier and they have one portion left to sell...), vegetables, and some other dishes to go with the rice. The food was a bit oily, and the portions on the small side, not really worth that price, about $300 a person including tea.
